A twist of fate put photographer Wayne Rainey together with acclaimed and controversial indie artist Mark Kozelek of Sun Kil Moon & Red House Painters. After a quick introduction, Rainey was able to get Kozelek in front of the camera for a couple of minutes. The result, entitled, "Broken" is a stark portrait set within a jagged frame. A departure for Rainey, but indicative of the power of his photographs.
Mark Kozelek was in Phoenix performing at the Crescent Ballroom. An American singer, songwriter, guitarist, record producer and occasional actor. Kozelek is best known as the vocalist and primary recording artist of the indie folk act Sun Kil Moon, with whom he has recorded eight studio albums, and as the vocalist, guitarist and founding member of the indie rock band Red House Painters, with whom he recorded six studio albums from 1989 until 2001. He is currently on tour.
Wayne Rainey is showing his work tonight as part of Chaos Theory 17 in downtown Phoenix.
